Yup, it's a clear giant flashing sign that the market is fully broken that we (with our employers) are all paying ~$25,000+ per adult for health insurance, and cannot find mental health providers who are interested in taking said insurance.

• Big shortage of providers

• Providers see taking insurance is like pulling teeth because they never want to pay and why should they because they can get a full appointment book from cash patients alone, due to the shortage.

So things like therapy become completely out of reach unless you're very wealthy, or if you've gotten to the point that you are desperate to go into ruinous debt, trading one problem for another one.
